Today is the third anniversary of the January 6th riot/trespassing at the U.S. Capitol, and it appears Democrats are on the verge of calling for this date to be a national holiday.
Congressional Democrats and the White House are today putting out more social media statements than they have collectively in the last ten years on the anniversary of 9/11. One of those is a Democrat member of Congress, Rep. Jason Crow. His account of that day has caught some attention on social media:
On Jan 6, I was one of the Members stuck in the House gallery.

I still remember the sound of the rioters banging on the House chamber doors. I remember consoling my friend and colleague who had just spoken with her family.
It's a harrowing story:
I remember telling my fellow Members to take off their pins so we couldn’t be identified. I remember my Ranger training kicking in to protect those around me.

I remember the brave Capitol Police officers who put themselves between us and the violent mob. I’m forever grateful for their service and honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.

There were more, but you get the point. Also, a Community Note has been recommended for that third one:
@CommunityNotes Zero police officers died on Jan 6

The only person who died that day was Ashli Babbit.

The beginning of that thread does have a certain "Commander McBragg" feel to it.

Really though, some of the Democrat takes today make it sound as if they were at Omaha Beach on D-Day.
Huh? Thats what you learned in ranger school to hide and get rid of your uniform? Something doesn’t sound right.

This kind of hyperventilating certainly wasn't occurring during the summer of 2020:
Where were you during 2020 while your colleagues were instigating riots against the police? pic.twitter.com/yhpvlUDbWJ

Some riots are Democrat-approved.
